Omaha Hi/Lo:

Is this final table going to the Van Marcus Show, Vol. 2? Few can forget the memorable performance he put on at APPT Manila. So far, today's final table is following suit. Marcus limped into the pot along with Leo Boxell, Joe Meissner, and Jarred Solomon. He was the first aggressor on a flop of {4-Spades}

{4-Spades}

{3-Spades}

{j-Clubs}

and was called by Boxell and Meissner. Both men called again when Marcus bet the {8-Spades}

{8-Spades}

turn, but only Boxell called on the {5-Spades}

{5-Spades}

river. Marcus showed down {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{6-Clubs}

{2-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

for the nut low and an eight-high straight; Boxell tabled a spade flush, {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

{Q-Diamonds}

{6-Diamonds}

.

They wound up chopping Joe Meissner's chips, with Marcus increasing his count to 171,000 and Boxell up to 93,000. Meissner is now very short, with 17,000.
